An independent organization will soon begin work to oversee the city of Minneapolis’ court-enforced settlement agreement with the state over Minneapolis police. The nonprofit Effective Law Enforcement for All (ELEFA) will be known as the “independent monitor” in this situation.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey signed off on the contract last week.

The group will now begin years of work to ensure the city and police department are complying in required reforms. Co-founder and attorney David Douglass joined MPR News Host Cathy Wurzer to outline ELEFA’s plans moving forward.
